Projet +RESILIENT: Local actors' first meeting

A key step of the +RESILIENT project took place on the 1st of October at the Economy and management Faculty of AMU in Marseille.

The partners of the project have the essential role of gathering economic and social actors of their territories in order to create clusters with social vocation and responsiveness. These clusters will be exchanging on models and trends of social economy/innovation, pinpointing their strengths and weaknesses in order to select and develop best practices to adopt or adapt and which are coherent with macro and local policies.

On the 1st of October, AMU hosted a meeting with several actors of the SUD Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur region. A diverse selection of actors were present:

The meeting was the opportunity to present the project, its objectives and deliverables to the participants. A section of the meeting was dedicated to two focus groups on the topics of “the analysis of needs in terms of open data” and “evaluation of competences and capacities within clusters of social innovation”. Discussions were lively and interesting debates arose, which will feed the thought process of the clusters along the lifetime of the project.
